About this listen

Winner of the "Best Novel" and "Best Historical Fiction" categories at "The 2019 International Royal Dragonfly Book Awards.

Abel de Santiago is a man on the run. Once a famous sniper, Abel finds himself a survivor of the Spanish Armada shipwrecks in 16th-century Ireland. Following his capture by a brutal sheriff, Abel flees torture and death with a priceless emerald ring. Dozens of English troopers hunt the Spaniard across the Irish wilds, beating every last bush in a desperate attempt to find him.

Muireann is a revered Irish poetess enjoying the hospitality of a neighboring tribe. Tragedy strikes when the sheriff’s men kill her husband during a violent night raid, with her life barely saved by the fugitive Abel. Newly widowed and shocked by her loss, Muireann must somehow reach the distant lands of her tribe, where she can be reunited with her only son.

Both runaways form an unlikely bond as they flee across a strange and stunning land, pushed to the edge of their wits and endurance. Yet unknown to Muireann, the ring Abel carries bears far-reaching consequences beyond Irish shores. Can the unlikely, desperate pair escape a ruthless sheriff who will never give up the chase?

Overblown

The ring itself only appears towards the middle of this novel, which could be considerably shorter. The descriptions of fighting are so detailed they become rather tediously intrusive. The tale seems to plod along, the main character is not only depressing shallow, being motivated by nothing bar revenge, but also decidedly unlikable. Keeble’s performance is as always excellent, even he struggling to bring life to the story. I had to force myself to finish it.
